Families and businesses are tightening their belts to make ends meet - and Washington should too Picture Quote #1

Mothers - especially single mothers - are heroic in their efforts to raise our nation’s children, but men must also take responsibility for their children and recognize the impact they have on their families’ well-being Picture Quote #1

Filibusters have proliferated because under current rules just one or two determined senators can stop the Senate from functioning. Today, the mere threat of a filibuster is enough to stop a vote; senators are rarely asked to pull all-nighters like Jimmy Stewart in ‘Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.’ Picture Quote #1

Baseball may be our national pastime, but the age-old tradition of taking a swing at Congress is a sport with even deeper historical roots in the American experience. Since the founding of our country, citizens from Ben Franklin to David Letterman have made fun of their elected officials Picture Quote #1

You now have six-year campaigns for the Senate - you never stop running. It’s not uncommon for a member of the Senate to have a fundraising breakfast, a fundraising lunch and a fundraising dinner, and then when the Senate breaks for the week to go home, more fundraisers.

I love working for the people of Indiana. I love helping our citizens make the most of their lives, but I do not love Congress Picture Quote #1

To win the war on terror, we must know who our friends are and where our enemies are hiding. We can’t continue fighting terrorism using the same foreign policy blueprints that were in place before September 11th Picture Quote #1

Challenges of historic import threaten America’s future. Action on the deficit, economy, energy, health care and much more is imperative, yet our legislative institutions fail to act. Congress must be reformed Picture Quote #1

In recent years, we have seen technology advance at lightning speed, allowing us to accomplish lifesaving feats never imagined before.

Our success as a party will largely be determined by how well we do here in the heartland... The time has come to be secure about our values. The time has come to lead Picture Quote #1

Filibusters should require 35 senators to... make a commitment to continually debate an issue in reality, not just in theory. The number of votes needed to overcome a filibuster should be reduced to 55 from 60 Picture Quote #1

If one of my boys was asking me if they should go into politics, I’d say there’s only one reason to go into public life and that’s to help people Picture Quote #1
